The resolution can't be changed from what was selected at boot-time - The default screen border is 1 char width. This can be changed with the loader tunable hw.syscons.border, in units of chars. - 'shutdown -h' and reboot now work thanks to Drew G. I'll try and get a minimal ADB module coded so notebook users don't have to plug in an external USB keyboard. later, Peter.

It's unlikely that FreeBSD will support that model given that it uses an older version of OpenFirmware. I'd suggest looking at NetBSD, since it is listed as supported on their matrix: http://www.netbsd.org/Ports/macppc/models.html later, Peter.
